Not sure if I love them or not, as I haven't seen them on BB, but I wasn't planning on cheering for Jordan & Jeff either, and they turned out to be my second favourite team on TAR16, so I'll give these two a chance as well!

.Love them, hate them, or love to hate them, Big Brother alums Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas can always be counted on to bring the drama.

And after several uneventful seasons of The Amazing Race, we're ready for Brenchel to inject some much-needed adrenaline into the reality series' 20th competition.

Besides their big personalities, Rachel promised us that we'll see "a lot of action and adventure" this season—beginning with this skydiving clip from Sunday's premiere. Read on to hear what else our new favorite reality couple dished about the season ahead…

Why did the engaged couple jump so quickly back into the reality fire? "We couldn't really say no to The Amazing Race," Rachel gushed to us. "It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"You get to see different places and experience different things" in the race around the world, Brendon added. "That's one thing with Big Brother that's so tough—we can't ever leave those confines. With The Amazing Race, the whole world is your competition board."

Rachel said her team's only liability was "ourselves," explaining, "Brendon and I are both really strong-willed and we both want to take charge, and sometimes I pretend like I know what I'm doing when I have no idea. Then I get mad at Brendon when he tries to tell me that I'm wrong, because of course I know what I'm talking about—you should just go ahead and agree with me."

"That is our problem sometimes, we both have very domineering personalities. That's what causes us to butt heads sometimes."

"We definitely had a few struggles—which you'll find out as you're watching—but in the long run the race made us closer," Rachel said. "Brendon and I are so in love, we're getting married, and we know that if we can handle two season of BB and TAR we can handle anything."

Due to their heavy reality-TV rotation, the couple haven't been able to nail down a wedding date, but Rachel says, "We're planning for this summer."

As for their relationship with the other racers, Brendon said, "You'll have to watch and find out. I will say that Rachel never disappoints the audience in terms of drama—I will say that much."

"We can't talk about who knew us and who didn't from BB," Brendon added, "but we got along with some teams, we didn't get along with other teams and I think it's going to make for some great TV for sure."

Before the show started i thought i would like the other Rachel but after show their is only one Rachel and that is Red Queen Rachel! Brenchel dont need the EP to get through the game they have the skills to win the game no matter what is thrown at them.People always said Rachel was jealous of the other woman on BB but after this show you can tell they are jealous of her.Not only is Rachel a great competetor and can out run any of the other teams by herself but she is also entertaining.I know Mean Rachel will make it far too but i hope they dont win.

ive never watched american big brother and i dont understand how players from it can be strategic, in the australian version housemates were fined just for discussing who to nominate and whatever even if they used subtle code names. there was very little room for strategy.

she seems alright, i agree she has a unique voice but i found her less grating than the baby like noises i kept hearing from the golf sisters! she seemed reasonably aware of details and competitive so i didnt find her too annoying or unbearable this leg. her boyfriend* was the problem i had with this team, twice he made what i perceived as racist remarks, sure i might be wrong or culturally unaware but it sat uncomfortably with me.

*i dont even know their relationship, phd student and event hostess makes it sound like they are just two randoms who dont even know each other, a "strangers" team, same with joey and danny, it should just say friends or something...

American BB is COMPLETELY different from any other BB. Here, it's more of a Survivor-esque game.
